The question re; Peacock Bass vs. Florida Bass:
Peacock Bass are imports from Central & South America and are not like largemouth at all. They are very colorful, grow to a very large size and it's doubtful they would survive in our northern climate. They have been imported into certain fisheries in Florida and are doing well in that climate.I will try to find a description and post it for everyone to read.
I have downloaded and attached a description of the Florida Bass which is a Largemouth but is a different strain. Please note they do NOT exist in Winnipesaukee.
Hope this helps,
